5 Reasons Why Glasses Are the Perfect Accessory
Today, June 6, is National Eyewear Day.
Many people rebuke the look of glasses in fear that it makes them look frumpy or geeky. However, we prefer to embrace them. The right pair can truly make a fashion statement, rather than an acting solely as a tool to see better.
Curious to dive deeper into the reasons why glasses are so great? Continue reading to discover our top five.
They Add More Dimension to Your Face
We often experiment with silhouettes on our body, but our faces don't get the same treatment. Sadly, you can't wear your favorite sweater with asymmetrical hemlines on your head. That said, glasses can bring the attention you want to your face. These days, you can find unique shapes and sizes for your lenses to really make a bold statement.

They're Easy to Wear
Although we love to wear jewelry, it can be surprisingly difficult to wear without someone else's help. Think about it! You can hardly see the clasp when putting on a necklace. Bracelets are nearly impossible to clip with one hand. And there have been so many moments when our technique to apply earrings was to jab until it went through the hole. Glasses, however, are simply placed on your face with no irritation.

They Make You Look More Studious
If you have a business or school meeting on the horizon, you might want to look even more serious. Glasses are an easy way to do that. After all, most people associate with nerds who need them because they spend so much time studying that it ruins their vision. In other words, you'll tell someone you put in hours of eye-crossing work, and that's why you need to see.
They're Perfect for the Introvert
Sometimes, making eye contact with people is hard. It can feel like their eyes are daggers, staring directly into your soul. The glare or tint of sunglasses can make it harder to see your eyes. No one will notice you avoiding to look at them. It's like an instant shield that doesn't make us feel perceived.

They're Functional
If you have blurry vision, glasses will, of course, help you see better. Compared to contacts, they aren't itchy or drying. But even if you don't need a prescription, you can buy glasses to filter harmful blue light from straining your eyes. Or, it will be an extra layer of protection alongside your lashes to prevent dust from getting in your eyes.
